Yesterday, 07/04/2004, the massive DOS-attack was started to http://www.esitesbuilder.com project server. More then 5 hours the server was unable to complete any standard requests from usual website visitors and project customers. Our professionals did everything to stop this situation as possible faster, and they wins.

We have complete statistics about the servers from there the attack launched and even that we have complete list of the IPs (and internal IPs) of the computers from there the command for launch attack comes. Sure we know who is the customer of this attack and we're going to do all the best we can to stop this dishonest competition.

We sent these logs to responsiveness companies and expecting for reasonable activity form them.

We are really sorry and apologizing to our customers for this situation.
We are providing complex of methods to make our servers impenetrable in the future.

In your opinion more 1K requests in a second it's a joke? I don't think so. We just want to let everyone know that we're in a trouble and this message is not a spam at all.

Well then, if we have members that are customers of yours, I think that's great that you are informing them. And thanks for letting them know -- although you could have simply emailed all your customers. You at least answered my question, but I assume you can see how everyone else thinks it's spam. It just didn't make much sense that your first post at OZZU was this one until you explained.
